My
Hi-lite: Mark 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world,
and preach the gospel to every creature.16
He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth
not shall be damned.17
And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast
out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;

Matthew
28:16Then the eleven
disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain
where Jesus had appointed them.

[17]
And
when
they saw Him, they worshipped Him: but some doubted.

Here's a more detailed of Jesus appearing to His disciples.

John
20:19-23Then the same
day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were
shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came
Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them,
Peace
be unto you.

Though the doors were shut, Jesus suddenly
appeared and stood in their midst and gave them comfort!
Matthew
18:20 "For where two or three are
gathered
together in my name, there am I in the midst of them."

[20]
And
when He had so said, He
shewed unto them His hands and His side.
Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the Lord.

[21]
Then
said Jesus to them again,
Peace be unto
you:
as my Father hath sent me, even so send
I you.

How did the Father send Yahshua Messiah?
Hebrews 10:7 "Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is
written of me,) to do thy will, O God." Now
Jesus is sending out His disciples, armed with the Spirit of truth, to
carry on the work which is the will of God. We will see what they
are to do in the last verse of Matthew.

[22]
And
when He had said this, He breathed on them, and saith unto
them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost:

His
disciples are to pass on His breath, which is His Spirit they received
from Him, to their brothers and sisters who are starving in the midst of
the great famine of these last days, which has so dried them up spiritually
they have become as dead men's bones.In fact, that is the exact analogy
God gave to Ezekiel whom we shall visit a few verse hence. First,
let's document from the Book of Amos what the great famine and dearth is
in these last days.

Amos
8:11-13Behold, the
days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land,
not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the
words of the LORD:

The great
famine in these last days is a great spiritual famine caused
by the lack of hearing the words of the LORD.You
"see", there is so little of God's Word taught chapter by chapter and verse
by verse in these last days that our people are starving for the true bread
and living water which gives life!

[12]
And
they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east,
they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the LORD, and shall not find
it.

Again, there are so few churches
that teach His Word these days.Instead,
most follow traditions and host praise and worship services in lieu of
feeding their congregations the life saving bread from the table of Lord,
which His Word.

[13]
In
that day shall the fair virgins and young men faint
for thirst.

"In that day" is
"this day" whereby our nation has become like
a great valley full of spiritually dry bones! That
is the picture that EZEK-I-EL (God is my strength) was given to
show us a simple, graphic, extremely uncomplicated spiritual analogy.

Ezekiel
37:1-5The hand of
the LORD was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of the LORD, and
set
me down in the midst of the valley which was full of bones,

You can just picture Ezekiel sitting
down in the midst of Death Valley surrounded by dry bones, can't you?

[2]
And
caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold, there
were very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very
dry.

Unfortunately there were VERY MANY
of those dry bones which were caused by the famine and drought of these
last days! The question is: Is it possible
for the spiritually dead to come alive, and if so, how can that happen?

[3]
And
He said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I
answered, O Lord GOD, thou knowest.

Yes,
the LORD knows how they can come alive and you can have a helping part
in it, if you are one of God's elect who is made strong by
eating
the whole roll (Ezek. 3:1-3), which
is the Word of God, as did Ezekiel whose name again means "God is my strength".

Here is what Ezekiel was commissioned to do:

[4]
Again
He said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto
them, O ye dry bones,
hear the word of the LORD.

It is
important to understand that the word "prophesy" means to "teach"!Ezekiel
was told by God to go say unto the spiritually dead "Go
to church every Sunday!"NOT!
He
was to go tell them to "Hear the Word of
the LORD!"Hey,
if their preachers and ministers had been doing their jobs and teaching
them after the manner of "Thus saith the Lord God" and "It is written"
instead of playing church and taking up collections, they wouldn't be a
bunch of spiritual skeletons with no meat on their bones in the first place.

[5]
Thus
saith the Lord GOD unto these bones; Behold, I
will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live:

Teach
them to hear the Word of God, to hear His Voice, and if they
will so do, then His Spirit (Breath) will enter into them and they will
come
alive spiritually and enter into eternal life.You
"see", it is the Word of God which is ALIVE with His Spirit and only He
has the POWER to give life eternal!Furthermore,
He not only has
the power to grant eternal life, He has ALL power in both heaven and earth...
ALL POWER that is! And you know what else?
He
has given us of His power, even over those snakes and lowlife kenites...
even over Satan himself.Here is your documentation from Luke
10:19, "Behold, I give unto you power to tread
on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing
shall by any means hurt you."

To that end, if there is one
thing you should have learned from your study of the Book of Matthew, it
is that which is written in the following verse.

Matthew
28:18And Jesus came
and spake unto them, saying, All power
is given unto me in heaven and in earth.

If you have built your faith
upon the rock to the point of knowing with certitude that Jesus Christ,
the King of kings and Lord of lords, has been given ALL power in both heaven
and earth and you are willing to trust in Him, to hear and obey His voice
instead of following after the traditions of churchianity, then you are
ready to be part of the brotherhood of brothers and sisters, the body of
Christ, who receive His final instructions in this great Book of Matthew.
Here it is!

[19]
Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them
in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:

Salvation
is now open to all peoples of all nationalities and languages... to whosoever
will repent and believe in Him, even the kenite!And His servants are to go teach
them to hear the Word of the LORD, to hear His voice, and
to "baptize" whosoever will in the name, which means authority or power,
of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
However,
and this may offend some, but that instruction does not mean to go around
and simply baptize people with water and pronounce the correct sequence
of words or use this form of His name or that. To
"baptize" in Greek means to fully immerse in something, and not just water.
John baptized with water but the baptism of He who came after John, Jesus
Christ, is with the Holy Spirit (Mat. 3:11, Acts 1:5), not
water.The point is, to be baptized with
the Holy Spirit is to be fully immersed in His Spirit,
for as we have "seen" in John 20 and Ezekiel 37,
it is His Spirit
that quickens, as in makes alive!

Here are Christ's own words:

John
6:63It is
the spirit that quickeneth(makes alive);the
flesh profiteth nothing: thewords
that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they
are
life.

Here then is what His "sent forth ones" (apostolos)
are to teach:

Matthew
28:20Teaching
them to observe all things whatsoever
I have commanded you: and, lo,
I
AMwith you alway, evenunto
the end of the world. Amen.

One must first know what Christ's
commands are in order to be able to teach them, right?That
is why we first study His Word chapter by chapter and verse by verse, rightly
dividing the word of truth, to show ourselves approved as workmen (laborers).And
if
we show our love for Him by keeping His commands (Jn. 14:15) and we then
teach others "to observe all the things whatsoever I have commanded you",
then He has promised that He (the great "I AM") shall be with you even
unto the end of the world, which is the end of this flesh
age when He returns on His white horse as King of kings and Lord of lords.

Amen... which means "You can count
on it!So be it!It's
a sure thing!"

Thank you Father for your wonderful gift to us!

Romans 6:23 "...
the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ
our Lord."

We repeat - You
"see", Jesus Christ, the Word of God, is that door that leads to life!

John 14:15-23
If
ye love me, keep my commandments.[16]
And I will pray the Father, and He shall give you
another Comforter, that He may abide with you for ever;[17]
Even
the
Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because
it
seeth Him not,
neither knoweth Him: but
ye
know Him; for He dwelleth with you, and shall be
in
you.[18]
I will not leave you comfortless:I
will come to you.[20]
At
that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.[21]He
that hath my commandments, and keepeth
them, he it is that loveth me: and
he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and
I will love him,
and
will
manifest myself to him.[22]
Judas
saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord,
how is it that thou wilt manifest
thyself unto us, and not unto the world?[23]
Jesus
answered and said unto him, Ifa
man love me,he will keep my words:
and my Father will love him, andwe
will come unto him, and
make
our abode with him.

To study the Bible is the noblest of all pursuits;
to understand it, the highest of all goals.We pray that with the guidance of the Holy
Spirit, you accomplish both.
